I am looking for certification on Ubuntu server technology or possibly Debian (as long as its supplied by Canonical, is that even possible?) which Ubuntu is based on.

Is there such a thing provided by Canonical? In what regions are these services available? Can someone get Ubuntu training and certification the same way Red Hat and other companies supply? Where can I get more information on this matter?

"We are really excited to support the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS release with a
fresh course and certification programme," said Billy Cina, Director
of Training at Canonical. "Having delivered hundreds of courses over
the last four years, we listened to the requests from training
partners and students for more Ubuntu-specific content. We have
responded and are confident that the change will benefit students
globally. This will also enable us to move from a multiple-choice- to
a 'Live labs'-type exam which is entirely web-based, testing students'
ability and Ubuntu skills far more effectively."...

...The Ubuntu Certified Professional course is designed for system administrators
required to deploy Ubuntu into an office environment, a trend that is
expected to accelerate with the release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Students
are not required to have any previous Linux experience but IT/system
administration experience is a must. The course lasts for five days in
a classroom or self-paced via e-learning. The exams will last 60-90
minutes and be delivered at Ubuntu Training Partner facilities or
anywhere with a secure broadband connection ...

Canonical has announced that it will offer its own certification
programme for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and that graduates will be entitled to
claim an 'Ubuntu Certified Professional' certification....

The joint programme with the LPI had been very successful, but there
was great demand for a pure Ubuntu certification. Now that the new
Long Term Support version is nearing completion and release, Canonical
has decided to start its own certification programme and offers an
online pre-training assessment to determine if the programme is
suitable for the prospective candidate.
